Description Eckhart Wörner 2014-05-24 15:37:28 UTC
Canon MP 640 printer was autodetected by CUPS after some driver installation, however, I wasn't able to add the printer using kde-add-printer because it does not accept the URI. Adding the printer using the CUPS web frontend worked fine. See attached screenshot.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 2 Eckhart Wörner 2014-05-24 15:40:07 UTC
Printer URI for these seems to be always cnijnet:/xx-xx-xx-xx-xx-xx where x represent hex digits.
Comment 3 Eckhart Wörner 2014-05-24 15:42:16 UTC
Probably another aspect of the same problem: printer should probably appear in the section "discovered network printers", like the Samsung printer.

Comment 5 Daniel Nicoletti 2015-03-24 21:35:53 UTC
May I ask what happens if you add another "/" (slash) after cnijnet:/
so it becomes cnijnet://xx-xx....

thanks

We believe this is fixed in the recently released Plasma6.  Can you retest this and report back?
